The European Commission will present a communication on "Facing the challenges of the safety of offshore oil and gas activities" on Wednesday. the document will outline changes to EU legislation as well as non-legislative initiatives to be taken with member states' regulatory authorities and industry in response to the Gulf of Mexico oil spill in April, when the Deepwater Horizon drilling rig exploded in the Gulf of Mexico -- resulting in a massive oil leak from the drilled oil on the sea bottom that lasted for over 85 days. The government plans to offer tax incentives in the next round of bidding for oil and gas blocks, to be launched later this month, to attract global firms. At present, oil companies get a seven-year tax waiver on their income for selling crude from a block. However, there is no such benefit for natural gas production.

With the increasing use of systems with embedded software on ships and mobile offshore platforms, cyber security is becoming critical not only for data protection, but also for reliable operations. Information security agencies are reporting that up to 97% of the attacks are actually consisting of tricking users via social engineering techniques. To address this awareness risk, DNV GL’s Maritime Academy developed an e-learning course for your crews and shore staff to raise awareness concerning cyber security, about threats and countermeasures, addressing your cyber security management system by encouraging the crew’s good cyber hygiene. You will learn to understand the importance of your Cyber Security role as a user of IT & OT (Operational Technology) systems and how to protect yourself and your organisation against cyber security threats.

In this video, Dave describes his approach for making stand-up meetings work with distributed or overseas teams.
http://www.SourceSeek.com - Connect With Top OffshoreSoftwareTeams
The stand-up meeting is a critical piece of the agile teamwork. The fast-paced, low-overhead stand-up meeting style helps to keep a team agile by reducing overhead and minimizing the time spent on meetings. A good standup-meeting gives everyone a chance to provide a quick status and address any obstacles they may have encountered, but is limited to those topics to keep the meeting short and sweet.
When working with an offshore software development team, we need to rethink the way we handle stand-up meetings to make it work in a distributed project. Many clients try to have the whole team, both offshore and domestic, conduct a virtual meeting where everyone gets together in a video conference. This can work, and does for some teams, but if your team is 8 timezones away it becomes more difficult, less efficient, and definitely less agile.
Dave's simple way to handle this is to have two stand-up meetings, one for each location, and then elect one person to act as liaison between the teams. This approach allows both teams to have the standup meeting on their own schedule, at a convenient time, so that they can get that efficiency and speed that a good stand-up meeting needs.
The liaison from each side will sure that everyone across the entire team is made aware of everyone's progress and issues, if any. After each standup meeting, the liaisons send a daily meeting report sent every day by the liaison of each team. With a little effort, the entire team can been kept aware of what everyone is doing at all times.
One shortcoming of this technique is that it doesn't provide that critical face-time for the entire team. An in-person meeting, or even a video conference, is a great team building technique and is important to keep a team acting as a true team. This is easily overcome, however, by scheduling occasional 'all hands' video meetings where everyone can chat and catch up.

There are many reasons why Hong Kong has become one of the most popular places in the world to set up a offshore business, especially if you are a digital nomad or running any sort of online business: Financial incentives (no profit tax on revenues that are derived from outside of Hong Kong), stable financial markets and the ease of running the business if you use an agency.
The typical setup cost for a Hong Kong company is about 15,000 HKD. If you are interested in using Bridges (http://www.bridges.hk/) like me, then I can introduce you to them. For this recommendation you will save 500 HKD and I will receive 500 HKD as a commission. Sound like a win-win situation?
Simply mention my name or email address when contacting them and they'll apply the disount on the quotation:
hello@stefanredcat.com
Of course you can also contact me and I'll introduce you to them.
1:43 The first thing you will have to decide is your company name. Bridges will check on its availability and after confirming it, you will need to fill out the incorporation forms and send them a copy of your passport as well as an address proof (phone or uitility bill will do).
3:22 The incorporation process takes about 8-10 days and once its finished you will receive an email from your agency where they let you know that your company kit is ready for pick up and they will also arrange a meeting with the banker to open your business bank account.
3:39 This is the only reason you really need to travel to Hong Kong at least once: To collect your company kit and to present your business plan at the bank, hand in all necessary documents, make copies of your passport and sign several forms and pages. Then you'll need to wait 1-2 weeks until the bank sends you an email, hopefully confirming that the application has been approved.
6:07 If you opened the account at HSBC, they will directly send you the ATM Card and Credit Card via post mail (if you have applied for one, for the credit card you need to make a minimum deposit of 50,000 HKD). Other banks, such as OCBC, don't give out credit cards to customers who don't have any credit record in Hong Kong. In other words, you would need to wait until you have finished your first annual audit and tax return. Also OCBC doesn't send the ATM Card via post mail, you would have to go to Hong Kong again to collect it.
Most agencies including Bridges will arrange at least 2 appointments with 2 different banks (in my case HSBC and OCBC WingHang) because recently more and more applications at HSBC are getting denied.
You want to be well prepared for the bank meeting and you can find detailed information and tips on what to bring as well as what to include in the business plan in my extensive guide on the blog:
http://www.stefanredcat.com/hong-kong-limited/
In this guide I'll explain even more topics including the maintenance of your Hong Kong Business (including renewal of business license & office address, accounting, auditing and tax return), detailed information on the tax situation (including the so called Offshore Exemption Claim) as well as a guideline on how to close your Hong Kong Limited once you don't need it anymore.

In this video, Dave describes his approach for making stand-up meetings work with distributed or overseas teams.
http://www.SourceSeek.com - Connect With Top OffshoreSoftwareTeams
The stand-up meeting is a critical piece of the agile teamwork. The fast-paced, low-overhead stand-up meeting style helps to keep a team agile by reducing overhead and minimizing the time spent on meetings. A good standup-meeting gives everyone a chance to provide a quick status and address any obstacles they may have encountered, but is limited to those topics to keep the meeting short and sweet.
When working with an offshore software development team, we need to rethink the way we handle stand-up meetings to make it work in a distributed project. Many clients try to have the whole team, both offshore and domestic, conduct a virtual meeting where everyone gets together in a video conference. This can work, and does for some teams, but if your team is 8 timezones away it becomes more difficult, less efficient, and definitely less agile.
Dave's simple way to handle this is to have two stand-up meetings, one for each location, and then elect one person to act as liaison between the teams. This approach allows both teams to have the standup meeting on their own schedule, at a convenient time, so that they can get that efficiency and speed that a good stand-up meeting needs.
The liaison from each side will sure that everyone across the entire team is made aware of everyone's progress and issues, if any. After each standup meeting, the liaisons send a daily meeting report sent every day by the liaison of each team. With a little effort, the entire team can been kept aware of what everyone is doing at all times.
One shortcoming of this technique is that it doesn't provide that critical face-time for the entire team. An in-person meeting, or even a video conference, is a great team building technique and is important to keep a team acting as a true team. This is easily overcome, however, by scheduling occasional 'all hands' video meetings where everyone can chat and catch up.

How To Start A Offshore Online Business in Hong Kong

There are many reasons why Hong Kong has become one of the most popular places in the world to set up a offshore business, especially if you are a digital nomad...

There are many reasons why Hong Kong has become one of the most popular places in the world to set up a offshore business, especially if you are a digital nomad or running any sort of online business: Financial incentives (no profit tax on revenues that are derived from outside of Hong Kong), stable financial markets and the ease of running the business if you use an agency.
The typical setup cost for a Hong Kong company is about 15,000 HKD. If you are interested in using Bridges (http://www.bridges.hk/) like me, then I can introduce you to them. For this recommendation you will save 500 HKD and I will receive 500 HKD as a commission. Sound like a win-win situation?
Simply mention my name or email address when contacting them and they'll apply the disount on the quotation:
hello@stefanredcat.com
Of course you can also contact me and I'll introduce you to them.
1:43 The first thing you will have to decide is your company name. Bridges will check on its availability and after confirming it, you will need to fill out the incorporation forms and send them a copy of your passport as well as an address proof (phone or uitility bill will do).
3:22 The incorporation process takes about 8-10 days and once its finished you will receive an email from your agency where they let you know that your company kit is ready for pick up and they will also arrange a meeting with the banker to open your business bank account.
3:39 This is the only reason you really need to travel to Hong Kong at least once: To collect your company kit and to present your business plan at the bank, hand in all necessary documents, make copies of your passport and sign several forms and pages. Then you'll need to wait 1-2 weeks until the bank sends you an email, hopefully confirming that the application has been approved.
6:07 If you opened the account at HSBC, they will directly send you the ATM Card and Credit Card via post mail (if you have applied for one, for the credit card you need to make a minimum deposit of 50,000 HKD). Other banks, such as OCBC, don't give out credit cards to customers who don't have any credit record in Hong Kong. In other words, you would need to wait until you have finished your first annual audit and tax return. Also OCBC doesn't send the ATM Card via post mail, you would have to go to Hong Kong again to collect it.
Most agencies including Bridges will arrange at least 2 appointments with 2 different banks (in my case HSBC and OCBC WingHang) because recently more and more applications at HSBC are getting denied.
You want to be well prepared for the bank meeting and you can find detailed information and tips on what to bring as well as what to include in the business plan in my extensive guide on the blog:
http://www.stefanredcat.com/hong-kong-limited/
In this guide I'll explain even more topics including the maintenance of your Hong Kong Business (including renewal of business license & office address, accounting, auditing and tax return), detailed information on the tax situation (including the so called Offshore Exemption Claim) as well as a guideline on how to close your Hong Kong Limited once you don't need it anymore.

About Me:
My name is Kevin Cook. I'm originally from Dallas, TX, but I've been living and traveling in Asia since 2013.
After graduating from university in 2011 and working a few unfulfilling jobs, I saved enough money to move to Asia and work as a teacher for a few years. That opportunity allowed me to travel around and experience new foods and cultures, and ignited a passion for blogging and making videos.
Now I travel full-time and make videos with the goal that I can encourage YOU to pursue your own dream of overseas traveling and living.
If you enjoy watching my videos, you can help me grow my channel by giving my videos a 'thumbs up', leaving a comment, sharing them, and subscribing!

After graduating from university in 2011 and working a few unfulfilling jobs, I saved enough money to move to Asia and work as a teacher for a few years. That opportunity allowed me to travel around and experience new foods and cultures, and ignited a passion for blogging and making videos.
Now I travel full-time and make videos with the goal that I can encourage YOU to pursue your own dream of overseas traveling and living.
If you enjoy watching my videos, you can help me grow my channel by giving my videos a 'thumbs up', leaving a comment, sharing them, and subscribing!
Thank you :)

Brussels to address safety of offshore oil and gas activities

The European Commission will present a communication on "Facing the challenges of the safety of offshore oil and gas activities" on Wednesday. the document will outline changes to EU legislation as well as non-legislative initiatives to be taken with member states' regulatory authorities and industry in response to the Gulf of Mexico oil spill in April, when the Deepwater Horizon drilling rig exploded in the Gulf of Mexico -- resulting in a massive oil leak from the drilled oil on the sea bottom that lasted for over 85 days. The government plans to offer tax incentives in the next round of bidding for oil and gas blocks, to be launched later this month, to attract global firms. At present, oil companies get a seven-year tax waiver on their income for selling crude from a block. However, th...

How To Start A Offshore Online Business in Hong Kong

There are many reasons why Hong Kong has become one of the most popular places in the world to set up a offshore business, especially if you are a digital nomad or running any sort of online business: Financial incentives (no profit tax on revenues that are derived from outside of Hong Kong), stable financial markets and the ease of running the business if you use an agency.
The typical setup cost for a Hong Kong company is about 15,000 HKD. If you are interested in using Bridges (http://www.bridges.hk/) like me, then I can introduce you to them. For this recommendation you will save 500 HKD and I will receive 500 HKD as a commission. Sound like a win-win situation?

In this video, Dave describes his approach for making stand-up meetings work with distributed or overseas teams.
http://www.SourceSeek.com - Connect With Top OffshoreSoftwareTeams
The stand-up meeting is a critical piece of the agile teamwork. The fast-paced, low-overhead stand-up meeting style helps to keep a team agile by reducing overhead and minimizing the time spent on meetings. A good standup-meeting gives everyone a chance to provide a quick status and address any obstacles they may have encountered, but is limited to those topics to keep the meeting short and sweet.
When working with an offshore software development team, we need to rethink the way we handle stand-up meetings to make it work in a distributed project. Many clients try to have the whole team, both offshore and domestic, conduct a virtual meeting where everyone gets together in a video conference. This can work, and does for some teams, but if your team is 8 timezones away it becomes more difficult, less efficient, and definitely less agile.
Dave's simple way to handle this is to have two stand-up meetings, one for each location, and then elect one person to act as liaison between the teams. This approach allows both teams to have the standup meeting on their own schedule, at a convenient time, so that they can get that efficiency and speed that a good stand-up meeting needs.
The liaison from each side will sure that everyone across the entire team is made aware of everyone's progress and issues, if any. After each standup meeting, the liaisons send a daily meeting report sent every day by the liaison of each team. With a little effort, the entire team can been kept aware of what everyone is doing at all times.
One shortcoming of this technique is that it doesn't provide that critical face-time for the entire team. An in-person meeting, or even a video conference, is a great team building technique and is important to keep a team acting as a true team. This is easily overcome, however, by scheduling occasional 'all hands' video meetings where everyone can chat and catch up.

There are many reasons why Hong Kong has become one of the most popular places in the world to set up a offshore business, especially if you are a digital nomad or running any sort of online business: Financial incentives (no profit tax on revenues that are derived from outside of Hong Kong), stable financial markets and the ease of running the business if you use an agency.
The typical setup cost for a Hong Kong company is about 15,000 HKD. If you are interested in using Bridges (http://www.bridges.hk/) like me, then I can introduce you to them. For this recommendation you will save 500 HKD and I will receive 500 HKD as a commission. Sound like a win-win situation?
Simply mention my name or email address when contacting them and they'll apply the disount on the quotation:
hello@stefanredcat.com
Of course you can also contact me and I'll introduce you to them.
1:43 The first thing you will have to decide is your company name. Bridges will check on its availability and after confirming it, you will need to fill out the incorporation forms and send them a copy of your passport as well as an address proof (phone or uitility bill will do).
3:22 The incorporation process takes about 8-10 days and once its finished you will receive an email from your agency where they let you know that your company kit is ready for pick up and they will also arrange a meeting with the banker to open your business bank account.
3:39 This is the only reason you really need to travel to Hong Kong at least once: To collect your company kit and to present your business plan at the bank, hand in all necessary documents, make copies of your passport and sign several forms and pages. Then you'll need to wait 1-2 weeks until the bank sends you an email, hopefully confirming that the application has been approved.
6:07 If you opened the account at HSBC, they will directly send you the ATM Card and Credit Card via post mail (if you have applied for one, for the credit card you need to make a minimum deposit of 50,000 HKD). Other banks, such as OCBC, don't give out credit cards to customers who don't have any credit record in Hong Kong. In other words, you would need to wait until you have finished your first annual audit and tax return. Also OCBC doesn't send the ATM Card via post mail, you would have to go to Hong Kong again to collect it.
Most agencies including Bridges will arrange at least 2 appointments with 2 different banks (in my case HSBC and OCBC WingHang) because recently more and more applications at HSBC are getting denied.
You want to be well prepared for the bank meeting and you can find detailed information and tips on what to bring as well as what to include in the business plan in my extensive guide on the blog:
http://www.stefanredcat.com/hong-kong-limited/
In this guide I'll explain even more topics including the maintenance of your Hong Kong Business (including renewal of business license & office address, accounting, auditing and tax return), detailed information on the tax situation (including the so called Offshore Exemption Claim) as well as a guideline on how to close your Hong Kong Limited once you don't need it anymore.

Does the negative press surrounding many of these centres threaten their status, and thus the endanger a potentially fundamental tool in a globalized world?
With three nearby Crown Dependencies and six overseas territories promoting themselves as 'international financial centres', the UK seems to value offshore centres. Yet during current financial crises these havens are easy scapegoats. At the 2011G20Summit in Cannes, PresidentNicolas Sarkozy stated, "We don't want any more tax havens. Our message is clear, countries that remain tax havens ... will be shunned by the international community". But do these centres add value? And what of onshore havens such as Delaware, Monaco, Luxembourg ... London? This symposium will explore the good, the bad and the ugly -- savings, crimes and tax. We will look at how offshore centres do add value, their dangers and how things might evolve to something, perhaps "mid-shore".
The transcript and downloadable versions of the lecture are available from the Gresham College Website: http://www.gresham.ac.uk/lectures-and-events/offshore-onshore-midshore-an-introduction

The opening address from the LongFinanceSpringConference 2014: http://www.gresham.ac.uk/lectures-and-events/offshore-onshore-midshore-an-introduction
Alderman ProfessorMichael Mainelli welcomes the audience and the panel members to the Long Finance Spring Conference. The Emeritus Professor of Commerce examines why the issue of InternationalFinancial Centres, or Tax Havens depending on your world view, are a vital topic of discussion. Does the negative press surrounding many of these centres threaten their status, and thus the endanger a potentially fundamental tool in a globalized world?
With three nearby Crown Dependencies and six overseas territories promoting themselves as 'international financial centres', the UK seems to value offshore centres. Yet during current financial crises these havens are easy scapegoats. At the 2011G20Summit in Cannes, PresidentNicolas Sarkozy stated, "We don't want any more tax havens. Our message is clear, countries that remain tax havens ... will be shunned by the international community". But do these centres add value? And what of onshore havens such as Delaware, Monaco, Luxembourg ... London? This symposium will explore the good, the bad and the ugly -- savings, crimes and tax. We will look at how offshore centres do add value, their dangers and how things might evolve to something, perhaps "mid-shore".
The transcript and downloadable versions of the lecture are available from the Gresham College Website: http://www.gresham.ac.uk/lectures-and-events/offshore-onshore-midshore-an-introduction

Brussels to address safety of offshore oil and gas activities

The European Commission will present a communication on "Facing the challenges of the safety of offshore oil and gas activities" on Wednesday. the document will outline changes to EU legislation as well as non-legislative initiatives to be taken with member states' regulatory authorities and industry in response to the Gulf of Mexico oil spill in April, when the Deepwater Horizon drilling rig exploded in the Gulf of Mexico -- resulting in a massive oil leak from the drilled oil on the sea bottom that lasted for over 85 days. The government plans to offer tax incentives in the next round of bidding for oil and gas blocks, to be launched later this month, to attract global firms. At present, oil companies get a seven-year tax waiver on their income for selling crude from a block. However, there is no such benefit for natural gas production.

Introduction to Cyber Security in Maritime and Offshore

With the increasing use of systems with embedded software on ships and mobile offshore platforms, cyber security is becoming critical not only for data protection, but also for reliable operations. Information security agencies are reporting that up to 97% of the attacks are actually consisting of tricking users via social engineering techniques. To address this awareness risk, DNV GL’s Maritime Academy developed an e-learning course for your crews and shore staff to raise awareness concerning cyber security, about threats and countermeasures, addressing your cyber security management system by encouraging the crew’s good cyber hygiene. You will learn to understand the importance of your Cyber Security role as a user of IT & OT (Operational Technology) systems and how to protect yourself and your organisation against cyber security threats.

How To Hold Stand Up Meetings With Offshore Teams

In this video, Dave describes his approach for making stand-up meetings work with distributed or overseas teams.
http://www.SourceSeek.com - Connect With Top OffshoreSoftwareTeams
The stand-up meeting is a critical piece of the agile teamwork. The fast-paced, low-overhead stand-up meeting style helps to keep a team agile by reducing overhead and minimizing the time spent on meetings. A good standup-meeting gives everyone a chance to provide a quick status and address any obstacles they may have encountered, but is limited to those topics to keep the meeting short and sweet.
When working with an offshore software development team, we need to rethink the way we handle stand-up meetings to make it work in a distributed project. Many clients try to have the whole team, both offshore and domestic, conduct a virtual meeting where everyone gets together in a video conference. This can work, and does for some teams, but if your team is 8 timezones away it becomes more difficult, less efficient, and definitely less agile.
Dave's simple way to handle this is to have two stand-up meetings, one for each location, and then elect one person to act as liaison between the teams. This approach allows both teams to have the standup meeting on their own schedule, at a convenient time, so that they can get that efficiency and speed that a good stand-up meeting needs.
The liaison from each side will sure that everyone across the entire team is made aware of everyone's progress and issues, if any. After each standup meeting, the liaisons send a daily meeting report sent every day by the liaison of each team. With a little effort, the entire team can been kept aware of what everyone is doing at all times.
One shortcoming of this technique is that it doesn't provide that critical face-time for the entire team. An in-person meeting, or even a video conference, is a great team building technique and is important to keep a team acting as a true team. This is easily overcome, however, by scheduling occasional 'all hands' video meetings where everyone can chat and catch up.

Special Address by Shri A K Jain-Advisor to Director Offshore, ONGC & Former ED, Offshore, ONGC

How To Start A Offshore Online Business in Hong Kong

There are many reasons why Hong Kong has become one of the most popular places in the world to set up a offshore business, especially if you are a digital nomad or running any sort of online business: Financial incentives (no profit tax on revenues that are derived from outside of Hong Kong), stable financial markets and the ease of running the business if you use an agency.
The typical setup cost for a Hong Kong company is about 15,000 HKD. If you are interested in using Bridges (http://www.bridges.hk/) like me, then I can introduce you to them. For this recommendation you will save 500 HKD and I will receive 500 HKD as a commission. Sound like a win-win situation?
Simply mention my name or email address when contacting them and they'll apply the disount on the quotation:
hello@stefanredcat.com
Of course you can also contact me and I'll introduce you to them.
1:43 The first thing you will have to decide is your company name. Bridges will check on its availability and after confirming it, you will need to fill out the incorporation forms and send them a copy of your passport as well as an address proof (phone or uitility bill will do).
3:22 The incorporation process takes about 8-10 days and once its finished you will receive an email from your agency where they let you know that your company kit is ready for pick up and they will also arrange a meeting with the banker to open your business bank account.
3:39 This is the only reason you really need to travel to Hong Kong at least once: To collect your company kit and to present your business plan at the bank, hand in all necessary documents, make copies of your passport and sign several forms and pages. Then you'll need to wait 1-2 weeks until the bank sends you an email, hopefully confirming that the application has been approved.
6:07 If you opened the account at HSBC, they will directly send you the ATM Card and Credit Card via post mail (if you have applied for one, for the credit card you need to make a minimum deposit of 50,000 HKD). Other banks, such as OCBC, don't give out credit cards to customers who don't have any credit record in Hong Kong. In other words, you would need to wait until you have finished your first annual audit and tax return. Also OCBC doesn't send the ATM Card via post mail, you would have to go to Hong Kong again to collect it.
Most agencies including Bridges will arrange at least 2 appointments with 2 different banks (in my case HSBC and OCBC WingHang) because recently more and more applications at HSBC are getting denied.
You want to be well prepared for the bank meeting and you can find detailed information and tips on what to bring as well as what to include in the business plan in my extensive guide on the blog:
http://www.stefanredcat.com/hong-kong-limited/
In this guide I'll explain even more topics including the maintenance of your Hong Kong Business (including renewal of business license & office address, accounting, auditing and tax return), detailed information on the tax situation (including the so called Offshore Exemption Claim) as well as a guideline on how to close your Hong Kong Limited once you don't need it anymore.

Hong Kong Vacation Travel Guide | Expedia

https://www.expedia.com/Hong-Kong.d178263.Destination-Travel-Guides
Hong Kong, a former British territory, is one of the most densely populated places in China and in the world. You’ll find quiet neighborhoods full of temples and a dazzling skyline loaded with shopping and dining opportunities.
Your Hong Kong tour must include visits to the many religious sites scattered around the city, where incense wafts from shrines and monasteries take over entire hillsides. You’ll have a marvelous time shopping in tax-free Hong Kong, where you’ll be able to find clothing, jewelry, furniture, and everything else under the sun.
Don’t forget about Tsim Sha TsuiPromenade, which overlooks the stunning Victoria Harbor. From there, your Hong Kong sightseeing may detour to Central, the city’s main business district, which looks like something out of a sci-fi film. The observation deck atop the International Commerce Centre will show you fantastic views of the city.
Hong Kong isn’t all cityscape, of course; there are many gardens, parks, and other green spaces for you to explore. You’ll also find beaches, national parks, and quiet islands for you to indulge in natural beauty and serenity. This city truly has everything.

Hong Kong Travel Guide - Must-See Attractions

http://bookinghunter.com
Hong Kong is one of the most exciting cities in the world. What makes this city so vibrant and energetic? It is nearly seven million residents. The city has a unique blend of Western and Chinese culture, which seem to co-exist very well and help make this city so fascinating.
The most important places to visit in Hong Kong are: The Big Buddha and Po Lin Monastery (this statue is one of the five largest statues of Chin), The Victoria Peak (this is something like a top view or a view point from where you can see the entire city of Hong Kong), Avenue of Stars (a place of tribute to the film stars, both past and present Hong Kong cinemas) and many more.
This video offers a lot of tips to help you plan the perfect vacation. If you want to save time and money, the most important Hong Kong travel tip is to compare prices before booking a hotel room or a flight. You can do this for free on http://bookinghunter.com, a site that searches through hundreds of other travel websites in real time for the best travel deals available.

About Me:
My name is Kevin Cook. I'm originally from Dallas, TX, but I've been living and traveling in Asia since 2013.
After graduating from university in 2011 and working a few unfulfilling jobs, I saved enough money to move to Asia and work as a teacher for a few years. That opportunity allowed me to travel around and experience new foods and cultures, and ignited a passion for blogging and making videos.
Now I travel full-time and make videos with the goal that I can encourage YOU to pursue your own dream of overseas traveling and living.
